Internal Medicine Fellowships Infectious Disease Fellowship How to Apply How to Apply COVID Considerations We understand that some anticipated infectious disease clinical elective rotations may not be undertaken, that anticipated research projects may not be completed, and that previously envisioned letters of recommendation might not materialize. We assure you that we will review all applications mindful of these realities, and we will not hold schedule changes imposed by COVID-19 against any applicant. We participate in the National Residency Matching Program (NRMP) and accept applications through the Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS). The ERAS common application form requires: Medical school transcript United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) 1, 2, 3 transcripts Two letters of recommendation (with one from the residency program director in internal medicine) Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG) status report, if applicable To be considered, applicants must complete an Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) internal medicine residency or equivalent by July 1 of the fellowship start date. We support J-1 visas. For international medical graduates, it is important to note that completing an ACGME-accredited internal medicine residency training program and American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM) board-eligibility in internal medicine is required for ABIM board-eligibility and certification in infectious disease.
